Feeling on edge or caught in a loop of worry?
When your mind feels like it won’t stop racing—even when things seem okay—it can be exhausting. Anxiety often shows up as restlessness, tension, or a sense that something bad might happen, even when there’s no immediate threat. While anxiety is your body’s natural way of preparing for potential danger, it can start to interfere with daily life when it becomes constant or overwhelming.
Anxiety can affect both mind and body—leading to racing thoughts, irritability, muscle tension, or difficulty focusing. You might notice physical symptoms like a pounding heart, upset stomach, or shortness of breath. Over time, untreated anxiety can make it harder to feel calm, present, and connected.
In therapy, we’ll work together to better understand your anxiety, uncover what triggers it, and develop strategies that help you feel more grounded. You’ll learn ways to quiet the mind, soothe your body, and build confidence in your ability to manage whatever comes your way.
Feeling weighed down or stretched too thin?
When life’s demands start to pile up, it can feel like there’s no space to breathe or think clearly. Whether it’s a sudden change—like a shift at work or in your family—or an ongoing challenge such as health issues or a major life transition, stress can take a toll on both your mind and body.
When stress goes unchecked, it can disrupt sleep, focus, and mood. It may show up physically through tension, digestive issues, or fatigue, and can increase vulnerability to anxiety or depression.
In therapy, we’ll explore what’s contributing to your stress, how it shows up in your life, and strategies to help you feel more grounded and in control. Together, we’ll build practical tools for managing stress and supporting your overall well-being.
Do past experiences still affect you today?
Sometimes memories, sensations, or emotions from the past can resurface when we least expect them—leaving us feeling on edge, disconnected, or unsure why we’re reacting the way we are. Trauma can shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. It can also influence how safe, trusting, and present we feel in daily life.
The effects of trauma can show up in many ways—emotional numbness, hypervigilance, nightmares, self-doubt, or difficulties in relationships. These are not signs of weakness, but natural responses to overwhelming experiences that the body and mind haven’t yet had space to fully process.
In therapy, we’ll work together to create safety as you begin to understand and heal from the impact of trauma. You’ll learn ways to manage triggers, build self-compassion, and develop a more grounded sense of self. Healing is possible—and with time, you can begin to feel more whole, present, and connected again.
What is EMDR Therapy?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a specialized therapy that helps reduce the emotional distress tied to difficult or traumatic memories. Through EMDR, people often find relief from intense emotions, a shift in negative beliefs, and a greater sense of calm and control in their daily lives.
During an EMDR session, you’ll bring gentle awareness to distressing memories, thoughts, or feelings while focusing on a form of bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements, tapping, or sounds that move from side to side. This process helps the brain reprocess stored memories so they feel less charged and more manageable.
EMDR therapy can be done both in person and online, and it can be helpful for individuals of all ages. Over time, this approach supports healing by allowing your mind and body to process the past in a way that promotes emotional balance and resilience.
